I guess this should be acknowledged on the grand repository of jetpics tomfoolery.

Some sort of ex military person...has pilot license, but I haven't figured out if he was ever paid to do so.

Seems a bit black and white in his thinking- and has a few strange ideas- in particular that JP might have a full video sequence of the twin going from flight to death dive (with some way to time stamp it to tower tapes). I guess it's not totally crazy to think that a forum of jetpicturetakers has individuals from every airport videoing every operation- (and then the photos come from a frame grab?)

The pilots made two or three relentless pull ups (according to my opinion), after lift off and then twice during the "cruise phase" as we were cleared to higher altitudes.

Also, in the first two miles after takeoff, there was a very large flock of geese below us.

Sightseeing was nice (And the poorly-maintained SWA fan blades and shimmy dampers did not did_break).

Finally, upon my return, I learned that WOW airlines is pulling out in January. Back to Flyover TECHNICALLY International Airport.

No more purple planes and economical, non-stop rides to Reykjavik. AND, serious moment, seemed like a OK business idea...nice out of the way midpoint hub & spoke to funnel Oboxious Americans from all over the USA out to see numerous Eurotrash locations and vice versa.

We have been popping popcorn regarding recent geopolitical discussions.

Also, no more crew meals, coffee, discussions about each other's families etc.

Someone might want to posit to that candle and beacon of American jurisprudence that if an airplane crashed because the pilot was pitching a credit card, it probably would have crashed had he not been pitching a credit card also. Kinda like when they banned nail clippers. I figure someone who can hijack an airplane with a nail clipper can probably also do it without a nail clipper.

Wouldn't it be easier to just purchase a set of those $3,000 douchebag headphones and be oblivious to ALL PAs (and everything else, for that matter)?
